FRESH VEGETABLE STEAMING CHART
The times in the Vegetable Steaming Chart are approximate. Set
the Timer and check for doneness at the suggested cooking time;
continue cooking if necessary. The size and shape of the food, as
well as personal taste, may call for adjustments. If you want softer
vegetables, add more water if necessary, and steam for additional
time. Do not allow the water in the Steamer Base to boil dry.
NOTE: Foods that steam in the THIRD (3) or SECOND (2)
Basket(s) may require additional cooking time.
*Approximate times are offered as guidelines only. Cooking times may vary.
NOTE: If cooking less than 10 minutes, turn Timer to “10” and
then back to desired cooking time.
